VPN client

Encrypted connection app

A VPN client is software that connects a device to a virtual private network, encrypting internet traffic and routing it through a remote server.

This masks the user's location and IP address, providing privacy and allowing access to region-restricted content.

The company requires employees to install a VPN client before accessing internal systems remotely.
